Chapter 668: Du Jue’s Concern

“Lord Du, having met Jun Mo Xie today, what do you think about him?” Xiao Wei Cheng asked tentatively as they travelled.

“The intelligence report is wrong! And very heavily too!” Du Jue said coldly as he continued to move at a very high speed. His voice was still as cold as before. “The report said that Jun Mo Xie was nothing but a fancy young master of a great family and met his master through a fortuitous encounter. He was just an arrogant kid who relied on his master to be his shield for everything and is completely useless by himself. It also said that he simply relied on his face and some flowery words to catch Venerable Mei’s interest… Those reports are nothing but rubbish! Xiao Wei Cheng, when we return later, you will be in charge of completely overhauling and upgrading the intelligence division! This is simply too negligent to a ridiculous level!”

Du Jue said with a stern expression as he continued, “Jun Mo Xie is a genius with exceptionally high talent. At such a young age, he already views the society with detachment and solidarity. With his cultivation talent, while he might not reach an unsurpassable realm in the future, he would at least reach a level of strength unprecedented by any other in history! He is a super genius that might not be found even once in tens of thousands of years! Yet, the report described him as a completely worthless and useless person! To a certain extent, their erroneous intelligence has caused us to stumble in our mission and caused this Venerable to suffer such a huge loss. This is an absolutely unforgivable mistake!”

He paused slightly and his tone trembled with some fear. “An 18 year old youth was actually able to resist my full force spiritual pressure, and he was not even heavily injured… Jun Mo Xie’s present strength even by a conservative estimate should be at the Superior Supreme level, or even above that! Xiao Wei Cheng… do you know what the significance of an 18 years old Superior Supreme is? In the past, this Venerable was still somewhat skeptical when I heard about that mysterious master’s seemingly miraculous and peerless abilities. I did not believe that such an expert could even exist in this world, but now that I’ve seen the capabilities of his disciple, it is truly extremely inconceivable. If the disciple can achieve such feats, the abilities of the master is apparent. Before this, I had the thought of triumphing over this expert. But now that I think of it, I’ve truly overestimated myself. This Venerable has been excluded from the world for too long and has become a frog in a well! Not to mention his master, I believe that with just a bit more time, Jun Mo Xie himself will become capable of standing at the peak of this world, unrivaled!

Xiao Wei Cheng sucked in a deep breath of cold air and his face turned ugly. However, he did not say anything.

“You might be thinking to yourself that I’m greatly exaggerating the kid’s abilities because this Venerable failed to subdue him. But you should know, ever since the Xuan Xuan Continent was founded, it’s been abound with countless cultivators. The number of legendary figures are not low either. Even the most dazzling genius in the history of this land, Saint Guan Meng, from 3, 000 years ago, could not be compared to Jun Mo Xie. Saint Guan Meng was a peerless genius of his generation; at the age of 18, he’d already reached the Spirit Xuan realm, and before him, or even after him, nobody was able to break that record of his, whether in age or cultivation. But even with his talent, he only reached the Supreme realm after the age of 20!”

Du Jue pursed his mouth and shook his head, “But this Jun Mo Xie had actually reached the realm of Superior Supreme at the age of 18! That’s a whole eight levels above Saint Guan Meng when he was at that age! How terrifying is something like that! If we really let Jun Mo Xie grow at that pace, even the strength of our three Holy Lands will not mean a thing in his eyes! At that time, the entire martial world will belong to Jun Mo Xie alone!

“Ah? The matter is really this serious?” Xiao Wei Cheng opened his eyes wide. After today’s matter, he’d understood how terrifying Jun Mo Xie was. But it never struck him that the matter would be so major. As Du Jue had just said, Xiao Wei Cheng had thought that Du Jue was simply over praising the kid because he’d lost to the latter and was trying to regain some face! At the very least, this would be one of the motivations behind his words.

“Serious? You think that this is serious already? There are even more weighty considerations that you hadn’t even thought of!” Du Jue snorted coldly. “Right now, our three Holy Lands has formed a death grudge with Venerable Mei! And Venerable Mei is Jun Mo Xie’s woman. This Seat does not want to hear nonsense like ‘Jun Mo Xie is just a useless gigolo that’s depending on Venerable Mei’. With his potential, even Venerable Mei might not be comparable to him. But if we’re talking about them teaming up based on their current strength, then that would barely be appropriate. In contrast, Venerable Mei might have even obtained more benefits from Jun Mo Xie! If Tian Fa really decided to show their strength to the outside world, it would naturally be an awesome power. However, it would not be anything too fearful. Because even though Tian Fa is strong, the number of their experts are still not comparable to our human Xuan experts. But if she obtains a powerful aide like Jun Mo Xie, the alliance of two strong powers… hmph! If they’re not controlled jointly by everyone, the three Holy Lands will soon cease to exist! No man in the world would be able to tolerate the existence of any force that could threaten the safety of their woman! This is especially true for a man like Jun Mo Xie!

“At the current rate of Jun Mo Xie’s improvement, given that he’s already reached the Superior Supreme realm at the age of 18, my guess is that he should be able to reach the Venerable realm by the time he reaches 20. Before the age of 25, he might possibly reach a realm higher than Venerable, perhaps even higher! If we waited for him to peacefully reach the age of 30… our three Holy Lands need not do anything anymore; we can simply sit back and wait for our annihilation!” Du Jue’s voice was filled with obvious fear—a fear for a horrifying future!

“It can’t be that fast? That’s simply too ridiculous!” Xiao Wei Cheng mumbled with some disbelief. “The process of cultivation is not such a simple matter; just the process of accumulation of Xuan energy, and the tempering of spiritual sense requires a long time. As the saying goes, each step of the 12 levels of Spirit Xuan is as difficult as ascending to the heavens. This is not something that can be done in a mere three or five years.”

“You think that I don’t know that as well? But I ask you now; is it really impossible?” Du Jue snorted coldly. “Xiao Wei Cheng, you’re at the Superior Supreme realm right now, which is the equivalent of 10th level Spirit Xuan. What is your current age?”

“This one has already experienced 178 winters.” Xiao Wei Cheng hesitated for a moment and said.

“Not bad, you’re not even 200 yet, and considering your age, this is relatively fast. You can try thinking about the entire process of your cultivation?” Du Jue said with a cold tone.

“I started practicing my Xuan Qi at the age of three; when I was nine, I successfully reached the Silver Xuan level. At age 12, I broke into the Golden Xuan realm, and when I was 16, I was already at the Earth Xuan realm. Age 19, Sky Xuan, age 25, peak of Sky Xuan, and then at age 30, I reached the Spirit Xuan realm; I was the most outstanding one among my Family.”

Xiao Wei Cheng recounted with some reminiscence. “… when I was 49 years old, I broke through to the ranks of Supreme, and following that was a long period of accumulation… until 90 years old, before I finally reached the Superior Supreme level. After that, I spent close to 80 more years to arrive at my current strength!”

Xiao Wei Cheng could not help but to sigh incessantly in his heart as he thought about the time that had flowed by him.

“In other words, because you obtained your current realm at the age of 178, you feel that you’re already a genius! Right? When you were 18 years old, you were only at the Earth Xuan realm, right? However, you’ve cultivated for 178 years, and your cultivation is at the same level as Jun Mo Xie’s, and he’s only 18 years old! If you’re a genius, what is Jun Mo Xie? Is there anything wrong with me calling him a peerless genius?”

Du Jue made a sound with his nose and continued, “What qualifications do you have to determine that a peerless genius like Jun Mo Xie cannot reach the Venerable realm before the age of 20? With just your level of talent, can you begin to comprehend something like that? Do you have the guts to proclaim something that you don’t understand as impossible?”

Xiao Wei Cheng’s body shook and he abruptly stopped his steps. His mouth grew wide, and a look of shock passed over his face.

Indeed, without comparing oneself with another, a person could still live in blissful ignorance. But the moment they compared themselves with others, they would die of shock!

He had been blindsided by Jun Mo Xie’s arrogance and infuriating behaviour, but he’d failed to notice the other’s monstrous talent!

Many years ago, he had also been celebrated by his Family as a super genius. His cultivation speed had been described as being monstrous as well! But… now that he was comparing himself with Jun Mo Xie…

Xiao Wei Cheng instantly felt a wave of extreme dismalness!

Comparison truly can drive one to their deaths ah!

So it turns out that the difference between people could be so huge…

“Do you understand how scary Jun Mo Xie is now?” Du Jue looked at him coldly.

“Then, Lord Du’s meaning is…” A vicious glint flashed in Xiao Wei Cheng’s eyes, “If Jun Mo Xie were to continue growing peacefully like that, wouldn’t he turn into a cancer in the heart of our three Holy Lands soon?”

“If it could be done, I would have killed him several times over already just now. In fact, there were many moments where I was nearly about to take the action! However… killing him so brazenly… is not possible, it’s definitely not an option!” Du Jue gritted his teeth and said, “Jun Mo Xie needs to die! This is something that cannot be changed! Chaos can arise because of his death, but we must never let them know that it was done by us; not at all costs!”

He furrowed his brows and looked into the distance, deep in thought. “Venerable Mei is one thing, but the most important one is still that mysterious master of his. If his disciple is so formidable, how much scarier must the master be? That great personage is most probably a formidable enemy that even our three Holy Lands will find difficult to oppose! Even if we were able to eke out a victory against such an existence, we would still need to pay a huge price in return… just who is this person? Could it be… someone from the Misty Illusory Manor?”

“What we need to do right now is to return to the Golden City as quickly as possible!” Du Jue said decisively. “Pass down the order for the intelligence department to monitor Jun Mo Xie’s every movement; not a single action of his should be missed. On the second day of the second month in spring, the elite forces of the three Holy Lands will gather in Silver Blizzard City! That will be the best chance for us to kill the Tian Fa Beast King. In addition, it is also the best chance to kill Jun Mo Xie. Against an opponent like Jun Mo Xie, we need to succeed with the first try. Because, such a person would never allow his enemies to make a second attempt on his life!”

“Apart from that, Jun Mo Xie and the Jun Family are already hostile with the Tian Xiang royal family. If possible, we’ll use this point to create some problems for them. Even if they have no weakness, we’ll create some weaknesses and restrict them more! We must not let them develop too quickly no matter what! Our main target is Jun Mo Xie; as for the rest of the Jun Family, although their strength is not weak in the eyes of the world, it’s not sufficient to enter the sights of our three Holy Lands. We can restrict their growth, but we only need to concentrate on Jun Mo Xie. Even if we ignored the rest of the Jun Family, it will be fine! Regardless, it’s still the same words; as soon as the time is ripe… we will prepare to strike with the force and speed of lightning!”

Xiao Wei Cheng did not completely understand what he was trying to say, but he still nodded his head quietly.

The two figures quickly disappeared into the distance…
